I grabbed a copy of the newest cygwin1.dll at 0745 CST this morning. I installed it on a Win2000 machine in the office that I had not really touched with respect to XFree. I modified the path to include the xfree bin material, copied xinitrc to home and renamed, and created a blank .Xauthority. Finally, I unzipped the cygwin1.dll snapshot, renamed, and copied to /bin, after backing up the existing version.
Oh, I forgot, I was logged into the network domain (same as my laptop), not the local box. I then used startx, X windows came up quickly, with the expected clock and 3 windows, and was operational. Note that I did nothing with respect to /etc/passwd. Wayne Keen
